George Spratt cut him out with Mattie Washington. Henry Jefferson knocked him down when he demanded the return of a loan of four bits and a bunch of crapshooters cleaned him out. Then John Baxter gave him a job sharpening razors. George was the first to see Sam laboring with a hone and enough razors to cut up the town. He spread the word that Sam had suddenly gone "bad" and the excitement ran high. The crap players returned the money Sam had lost, and more, too, before he asked for it. Henry paid back the four bits and refused to take the change for a dollar, and Mattie ran all the way to the Baxter yard to ask him to take her to the hall. Then Baxter gave him a dollar and an old dress suit for the job and Sam, with his easily won reputation for badness put it all over the others. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
